UFC on Fox 15 is in the books, and the UFC had to be happy with the results. Several young stars put their thumbprint on the event, and others slam dunked it. The event was headlined by three of the top ranked middleweights showcasing their abilities, and making their case for a title shot later this year.
Luke Rockhold continued his path of destruction, totally dominating former Light Heavyweight champion Lyoto Machida. From bell to bell Rockhold mollywhopped Machida, before submitting Machida with a rear naked choke in round 2.
Jacare Souza did exactly what he should have, dominating last minute replacement Chris Camozzi for the second time. Souza was originally slated to take on Yoel Romero, who had to withdraw last week after an injury. Souza used a masterful wall walk to set up a quick armbar victory.
Paige VanZant further solidified her meteoric rise to fame with a dominant victory over veteran Felice Herrig. PVZ overcame early struggles and controlled the last two and a half rounds, ending up with a two scores of 30-26. VanZant did look susceptible to submissions, however, but took on someone with three times the experience as she.
